Currently I have both the King in Black and 3-pack Legends Venoms which are both really good in their own ways.

That 3-Pack Venom has such an amazing transitioning head. I mean they really knocked it out of the park with that.

I really like what Mafex does with these figures. If it weren't for financial limitations, I could definitely see myself investing in a few, especially spider and associates. That being said, something about this Venom figure always seemed of to me. Not saying it's a bad figure but I think I actually prefer the 3 pack version from Hasbro.

I own the Chinese bootleg figure of this lol. Its actually not half bad apart from a really garbage looking Eddie head

Honestly though, as others have mentioned, the size is just too small on this guy. If Mafex had made itlarger it would be an excellent Venom figure and would probably be one I would buy for my display. Currently I have both the King in Black and 3-pack Legends Venoms which are both really good in their own ways. I had considered buying the Select Venom at one point, but went with the Legends ones instead.

Mafex Venom looked pretty good but he was way too small, which makes good sculpt pointless unless you have the figure by itself without any other mafex figures. If this reissue was the exact same figure but 20-15% bigger than the og, it could have sold really well.

well, it is Venom anniversary as well this year so it make sense to re-release it. Plus rumor has it Hasbro is also planning something for it.

I guess there weren't a lot to go around?

I realize it's an older figure, but I'm missing the big drooly Venom tongue.

Wow that was fast both sold out on BBTS managed to snag Ben Rielly tho!

Got him back in the day from Megalopolis for a pretty good deal I thought.. like around 70 bucks at the time for some reason. Great looking Venom... he's just on the small side.

The year of the re-issue continues. How come these re-issues never seem to come with any kind of discount? It's obviously just left over stock they never got rid of. I hardly think they really went back to the presses to produce these things for re-issue. Whatever the case I guess it's really no skin off my nose. Even with a discount the thing would probably easily still be over $70. The day I pay that for something like this is the day they put me in the asylum. And I would go willingly.
